How Talia’s Not Letting Cancer Halt Her Fashion Dreams

The 13-year-old YouTube sensation Talia Castellano isn't letting cancer get in the way of her dreams! The adorable, inspirational girl ― who was named an honorary Covergirl with the help of daytime talk show queen, Ellen DeGeneres ― has become an Internet celebrity thanks to her oh-so-popular online makeup tutorials.

"Omg! Insider" caught up with the beautiful Talia ― who has bravely fought two aggressive forms of cancer, neuroblastoma and leukemia for years – when she talked about making her dreams come true by launching her very first clothing collection, "That Bald Chick," with the aid of L.A.-based designer Urbana Chappa.

"I was always like a girly girl, but I did dress well, and I knew how to put outfits together," the beautiful teenager said, "but it wasn't until about six months to a year ago I started being like, oh yeah, seeing all these things on Tumblr or Instagram and it was just like all really hot fashion ― that's when I started getting into it."
